In the evening, when a passerby checked the vehicle, Kumar’s dead body had been found.

Later, he was declared brought dead by a hospital.
Prima facie, he died by inhaling nitrogen, but we are awaiting medical reports, cops added.
Earlier in the year, he underwent coronary artery bypass surgery. He had also told his family that he was contemplating suicide. Police said Kumar searched for videos on ways to die. He chose to inhale nitrogen inside a closed car, procured a cylinder of the gas, and placed it in the bootleg space of the rear seats. Police have registered an unnatural death case.
